Federal Halfway Houses in SC? How many months halfway house will I get?

Just wondering if anyone knew what halfway houses are in SC for female federal offenders- as close to Aiken as possible- I am assuming that would probably be Columbia. I have read that some HWH are worse than camps but I wanted to try and research that before I left so I could make a decision when the time comes to stay at camp or come home. On a 27 month sentence I don't think i can do HC until the last 2-3 months correct???

The "Second Chance Act" allows the bop to send you to a HWH for up to one year, home confinement for a maximum of 6 months, but they rarely do. Your unit team case manager will decide how much "community corrections" time they will recommend for you.

You will earn 106 days of good time at 47 days for each 12 months of your sentence. If the pending bill in congress that changes 47 days to 54 becomes law, you will earn an additional 15 or 16 days of good time too.
